Yes we finally went to see Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (aka Black Panther 2) everyone who was going could go so the tickets were bought and we all showed up in the lobby before the movie started

Also yes there was plenty of Black Panther stuff down at the theater which of course included cups and buckets! you can read more about that here.

As for the movie I thought it was very good! I did enjoy it and I feel that all the Marvel movies are more like chapters in the larger story and this was a pretty good chapter in that context.

It probably would have been a completely different movie if Chadwick Boseman didn't pass away, but what we got was pretty good

I'm sure alot of ppl wanted to see how they would handle things in regards to him not being there and I think they did a good job at the first of the movie somewhat explaining what happened where it was like an "unknown illness" and the whole funeral scene and all that was very impressive and I felt they gave him a true King's send off with all that.

alot of the movie deals with grief and loss and trying to move forward with life after some who you loved and cared for passes away. I can only imagine how everyone was feeling when filming this it must have been hard at time to do certain scenes. It was a very emotional movie at times and ppl were all saying stuff like they sobbed through the whole movie becasue it was overwhelmingly emotional and full of sadness and all that. Now me personally honestly I didn't shed a tear or get emotional at all during the movie and didn't feel sad or anything. They had a nice tribute to Chadwick Boseman at the end of the movie where Letitia Wright's Shuri is remembering her brother and all the good times and letting him go so to speak which was very touching but didn't at the same time it didn't effect my feels/emotions at all.

I think that was partly becasue I was more interested in other aspects of the movie and not focused on the absence of Chadwick Boseman but more focused on the introduction of characters like Namor who is a very prominent character in the Marvel Universe and was interested in how they would bring him to the big screen.

Now I thought Tenoch Huerta did an amazing job as Namor he looked the part and he acted the part although I did feel that he was a bit soft at time where I thought Namor would be more stern or aggressive becasue he is not a very nice guy alot of the time from my exposure to him in the comics but I do feel that Tenoch Huerta absolutely nailed it also Mabel Cadena as Namora I didn't recognize her at first until her name was said and then I was like oh thats her! I kinda had a feeling it might have been her being she looks completely different then she does comic wise and Alex Livinalli as Attuma and I thought he did an excellent job with him and the look of the character was you could tell it was Attuma.

Another interesting addition to this was introducing the character of Riri Williams aka Ironheart I can't say I'm a fan of the character and in a way I felt she was kinda shoed into this and becasue kinda like this whats the word? MacGuffin? for I would say the first half of the movie until she is rescued by the Wakandans and begins to work on her suit with Shuri don't get me wrong Dominique Thorne was great in this but I just felt that she was kinda shoed into this to be a plot point. Also I know she is getting a Disney show and I guarantee it that ppl are going to be all "its that IronGirl from Wakanda Forever" when that show starts. Also everyone else who returned to the movie did an amazing job also reprising their roles Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira, Angela Bassett, Winston Duke and Martin Freeman were all fantastic.

The score was great there was some nice music in this and apparently a song by Rihanna which was suppose to be the title song was playing during the credits but didn't pay too much attention to it being I was talking to friends while we waited for the mid credits scene. I'll probably listen to it later to see what its like.

of course the production design and costumes were all amazing and it was cool to see the world of Wakanda fleshed out more from the first movie.

The fights and action were great also but I don't find there was alot of action in this one it was a bit more dramatic and extremely story centric with lots of dialogue and subtitles the cool thing though was the subtitles were color coded for different langues which I thought was a interesting idea.

Also the visual effects in this were quite amazing all the all the sea life that was created was impressive, having Namor fly with his classic winged ankles was awesome and the whole scene where they take a tour of Talokan (the Atlantis of the MCU) that was extremely impressive all the under water stuff that was don't was visually amazing.

Now here is the part that ppl might not like and it would probably be considered an "unpopular opinion" but after watching both Black Adam and Wakanda Forever I personally and the other 5 people in our movie group who watched these with me we all agreed that Black Adam was a better movie. After Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was over and everyone was talking before the mid-credit scene everyone agreed that we all seemed to have enjoyed Black Adam more then Wakanda Forever one of my friends said they felt Wakanda Forever was too "scattered" and they were doing to much at one time

It was a good movie and I did enjoy it for the most part and as I said above this was a good chapter in the MCU storyline Its going to be interesting to see what is going to happens next. the only thing I guess I am sad about is that we didn't get to see the original version of what the movie was suppose to be, but out there in the vastness of the Multiverse there is a Black Panther: Wakanda Forever staring Chadwick Boseman but on this Earth this one was pretty good.

Yes When we went to see Black Panther: Wakanda Forever there was actually alot of stuff for it! they had some lil Black Panther plush toys, Drink coasters, Socks and packs of playing cards plus Cups and Buckets of course! and of course we picked up our Cup and bucket

The buckets again were metal and embossed/stamped out ones that we gotten before. But this one is different from the other ones we got this one isn't round its more of a pentagon shape with different characters on each side. What I would consider the front has The movies title logo and a nice tribal looking Panther logo then the other 4 sides there is going to the left Shuri,Okoye, M'Baku and Nakia and of course its a really nice bucket all these metal ones have been pretty nice.

Now as for the cups are the usual plastic cups but this is one of the smaller ones it says 32oz on the bottom(which is like 946ml or so?) there is cover has a thing but there isn't any topper for it

On the front it has the group of Shuri,Okoye, M'Baku and Nakia on it and on the back it just has the movies Title logo and there is like Trible desins on it as well and like the Morbius cup it also has this nice metallic purpleish/blueish black finish on it. it’s pretty cool, I think.

also..! when we got this the girl behind the counter handed me this lil blind bag thing I didn't open it yet its just sitting in the bucket at the moment but you get one of 3 Black Panther items a Keychain, a necklace or a bracelet? by the feel of it I think its the bracelet and I do wear bracelets but I'm not sure if I'll open it or not? I'm thinking of just leaving it closed. but anyway that was our in theater merch for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Ruth E. Carter’s work cannot be understated, beyond the cinematography, lighting, and VFX; her work is the true bow that holds it all together.

I can feel that Oscar in her hands.

M’Baku in Wakanda Forever is proof that you can give a Marvel character funny moments while also giving them emotional depth without taking away from the heart of the movie (and actually adding to it)
